The first thing that I noticed is the car is noticeably higher than it used to
be (with the H&R/Bilstein setup it used to be very low). It looks about the
same height as stock but I will take some measurements in a few days. I then
drove it and there is a tremendous difference. It rides like a normal car
now without the bone-jarring thumps at every bump in the road. My girlfriend
commented that is now a pleasure to be in my car and she fell asleep (which
she was never able to do in my car before). The steering feels much
different with the 2 degrees of negative camber dialed in and if you even
think about turning, it does. It is kind of odd at first but I really like
it. As for the handling, I played on a few highway ramps and didn't notice
any difference in overall cornering ability but I will have to wait for an
autocross or drivers school for the final judgment there. Overall, I am very
happy with the results and anyone in the NYC area is welcome to try it out
if they are considering something similar.

One comment that I have heard before that I concur with is concerning the
"adjustable" camber plates. It isn't as easy as one would think to adjust
them. You can just loosen 3 bolts and adjust the camber but then your
alignment will be off (because your tie-rods will move). You can adjust the
caster but the strut has to be lowered completely to do this so it is more
of a set it and forget it deal. I conferenced in my mechanic with Brian from
TC Kline to confirm this and he agreed. This doesn't mean that I am
unsatisfied with the part in any way - they are very well made and look
really cool, but I just wanted to point this out.

The part numbers of the springs that I used, for those of you that are
interested are:

Fronts: 31-33-2-228-171 (even though I do have a/c, sunroof, etc) - $166.80
(for both) from Nick Alexander
Rears: 33-53-9-069-132 - $168.60 from Nick Alexander
I did have to wait an extra week for the springs to be shipped from Germany
but it was worth it.
